aetrd Picture Of a Tomb

Mr. j. H. Vane has in his posses
sion photograph of the monument
of the late Hon. John NJ Clayton, in
the Presbyterian churchyard in this
town, that is attracting considerable
attention, and has caused not little
comment. Mr. Vane is photograh
er, and in Marcel last photographed
the monument He vas accomDan-
ed by boy. When be looked at
the plate he sa things never dream
ed of in connection with the monu-
N TENT, and showed them to the boy
dhe latter no sooner looked at the
plate than his hair got on the perpen-
dicular and his feet had uncontrolla

is very urge, fine, white marble
oae. The tomb rests npon dais un-
der heavy marble canopy supported
by handsomely carved pillars There
is a space of several feet between The
tomb proper and the marble can

strangely supernatural feature Of the
photograph Between tie tomb and
the canopy above ctn be distinctly

whiskered man Beeriug around the
righ hand corner on the tomb; as If
watching aim, can be seen the head of

the place occupied by tic photograph
er Floating 10 tie air above the
monument can be seen the shadowy
eountenanee Of a large, smooth faced,
white haired man, with eyes and
mouth open, the expression being one

ton seems to be that the plate was in
some way defective. or had the i'm

Mt. Beectler was Speaking on Com.
munism' once in Chicago when q
rather dramatic and very characteristic
thing happened. His lecture was half
finished. He was standing before an
audience of 10000 people in the old
Tabernacle building, a temporary
structureaon Franklin street, put up to
accommodate the vast audiences which
thronged III those days to hear Moody
and Sankey, then in the heyday Of
their early work and enthusiasm. The
greatsroom was packed. Word after
word fell forcibly upon the vast crowd,
which grew more and more silent rs he
went on. a reporter at the table down
in front of the platform dropped a lead
pencil, and one could almost feel the
noise that it made, so breathlesslv were
all in that audience listening to the
orators voice. He was telling the
story Of the rise of the power Of the
people. Presently he ended a ringing
period with these words, pronounced
IN a voice so deep and fervid and full
of conviction that they seemed to have
been uttered then for the first time:
The voice Of the people is the voice
Of God"
Into'the" absolute and intense silence
OF the instant that followed fell the
voice Of a half-drunken man in the
gallery: The voice of the people is
the voice of a fool"
Everybody fairly shivered. But Mr..
Beecher was equal to the oment He
drew himself up, looked toward the
place from which the disturbing voice
came, and Il said the Voice of the peo-
pie, not the voice Of one man. he re-
pied with perfect simplicity and dig
nifty.
1t would be impossible to describe
the responsive expression of the audi
ehce. 1t was not a laugh; it was not a
cheer. 1t was a movement, a sound
like n great sigh of relief and de-
light. The lecture went on; the air
was full of electric sympathy, tingling
toward an explosion of some sort.
Beecher knew it, and seemed waiting
for a chance TO put his finger on the
Key on the pent up personal enthusiasm
which moved his audience. The drunk
en- fellow suddenly gave him chance.
lie staggered To his feet, feeling that
the odds We're against him. and
numhled out some unintellirible
words. Beecher paused a second time
III his lecture. Then he said with that
smile OF his, at once winning and
condemnlng. which So many people
know: win some kind person take
our friend on and give him some cold

LINES TO A FRIEND.

There's sadness in my heart TO might,
While tears bedim my eyes,
No CLEAN of sunshine lights nay path,
Der which dark clouds arise;
The summer past, like summer flowers,
Is faded now, and dead.
The gladstone light of other days,
For me has long since fled.
Long months of sorrow lie between,
Those halcyon days and now,
The Joyous smile cannot conceal
The gloom upon my brow;
Then ask me not why am sad,
Seek not to know the pain,
That turks within my breaking heart,
OH Ask me not again.
Stern sorrow with its blighting hand
Hath brought me grief and care,
And oftentimes they seem 10 be
Far more than / can bear;
And, though the lip is wreathed with smiles
No sunshine fills the heart,
For sorrow guards the portals there,
And bids all happiness depart.
